another camera

The FED 1g is a Soviet Leica-copy, built in the early '50s. The model can be viewed and downloaded from Google's 3D Warehouse.









I'm still working at learning the basics of Google's 3D drawing program. The program does great things, but there are a lot of techniques to master, and good help is hard to find. Most of the on line tutorials seem to be written by hyperactive teenagers who tend to gloss over essential details. Even the best resources, including my "Dummies" manual, leave out crucial steps. I'm progressing, but right now I'm thinking it will take six months of pretty serious study to be able to produce the kind of work I want to do.

not yet an airplane

But I'm getting better with the tools, thanks largely to the Google SketchUp 7 for Dummies book. I haven't quite figured out the components feature yet, and I need some practice making more organic forms. Fun stuff.
